16 fl oz to Cups (US)
16 fl oz = 2 cups. That is the exact conversion for US kitchen measurements, where 8 fluid oz fill 1 cup.
16 fl oz × 0.125 = 2 cups
As a fraction: 2 cups
The formula
Multiply by 0.125: 16 × 0.125 = 2. To reverse it, divide by 0.125 instead.
16 fl oz × 0.125 = 2 cups
This uses the US cup of 236.588 mL, the standard for recipes written in cups. A metric cup (Australia and New Zealand) is 250 mL and an imperial cup is 284.13 mL, so a recipe from either of those places will need a different figure.
One check before you measure: this converts FLUID oz, which are volume. If your recipe lists a dry ingredient like flour or sugar in oz, that is weight, and the answer here does not apply, weigh it on a scale instead.
